Data sharing is important for genomic research in Africa. However, the lack of data protection has created tension between the push to openly share human research data with balancing the legal, ethical, social and technical challenges with doing so. Here is
 a blog published after a two-day workshop for experts coming from a wealth of backgrounds to discuss the challenges on how to govern data sharing.
